What is the router composed from?

A router is composed of 7 components:
  • CPU: The CPU functions just like a personal computer
  • RAM (Random Access Memory): The information it contains are in continual change. Whenever we restart the router or turn it off, this component loses the information it carries.
  • NVRAM (Non Volatile RAM): It saves all the configuration folders.  
  • Flash: The flash is very necessary in a router because it carries all the memorized information.  
  • ROM: It carries information about the hardware.
  • Console: The plug and the jacks of a router, they enable it to receive configurations.
  • Interfaces: They enable the router to be connected to LAN and WAN.
